I love the way you are clearly talking to us not dictating, you explain the science without talking above us. You can tell us how to do it in a friendly way without being guttural. There is a gentle kindness and caring in your manner of speech with a total absence of arrogance that is very refreshing (qualities that are very lacking in other DIY soap videos). Since you don't have any products for sale on your website, including the ingrediencies for the various recipes, I can only guess that your income is derived from your YouTube channel. So just to do my part, I subscribed. This is the only channel I have done that with. The best part of your videos is the fact that you don't nag at us to do so. Thank you

Dude, i was looking for a natural shampoo recipe for days now! Thank you SO much, you literally opened my eyes as to how to make my own natural cosmetics!! You are the best!!

[cferracini]

I was just introduced to the importance of PH in hair care and it's very surprising the amount of shampoos in the market with the wrong ph! So I'm very pleased with how detailed you go by this process. I don't think natural is necessarily better but when you go with the science as well and take so much care with every step? My mind is blown. You are amazing! Thank you!

[Treaks]

We really need a hair routine video from you. Your hair is amazing 😍

[lijah]

omg your channel is inspiring me to make my entire lifestyle diy it’s such a reassuring feeling to physically see and know everything going into what you use

[brisacostera]

Girl. Your hair looks so beautiful! Also, love your videos. I love how calming and informative they are.

[bseduarda]

Girl!!! Your channel is like my wishes came true!!! Thank you!!

[Mrs.Fineapple]

You are absolutely correct in testing the shampoo on your hands first. I purchased a DIY shampoo on Etsy and used the same method. It dried my hands out so I assumed it was “doing it’s job”. Big mistake. That was before watching this video of course. After washing my hair with the product, it took 2 months of DC and a protein treatment to get my hair back to normal. Knowledge and common sense is power.

It would be amazing if you could make antibacterial and anti fungal cleansers for the body and even surface/fabric cleaners! So happy to have found your channel <3 An eczema lotion/cream would also be great!!

[katerose]

You are sooo beautiful and your channel has been life changing for me! Thank you for all you do!!😊

[KineshaHarry]

This is the best and easiest shampoo tutorial I’ve seen, thank you very much❤️

[buttercup]

I probably won’t make shampoo by myself but I enjoyed the video so much, the voice is so relaxing and everything is so beautiful ❤️.
So professional! Congratulations

[yanairyguerrero]

You are literally amazing! I tried your hand lotion recipe and fell in love. Will be making this soon as well!

[Zemira.Israel]

I just tried the clarifying one today and I love how gentle it was even though it’s a clarifying recipe! Next time I’ll make it less thick lol that Xanthan gum is no joke! Lol Thank you so much WholeElise!!!

[Onlyhuman_]

[foxshear]

I am so excited for this recipe!
The other recipes I've made from you have saved my hair.

Hi, I truly love your videos. I have been suffering with dandruff ever since I can remember. I used to use head and shoulder shampoo which is now been discontinued. Can you create a video for a natural-ish dandruff shampoo please? I have a feeling many are interested x

[snowsimbafamily]

I tried this yesterday and it was amazing, thank you so much, Elise!!! 🤩

[heidicroucher]

Just a warning! The shampoo works GREAT! But if you sub the hydrosol with water or Aloe Vera Juice, have a backup plan to cover up the scent of the massive amount of glucoside! Lol. Hydrosols work great at covering up the scent though. So I suggest sticking to using a hydrosol OR a fragrance/Essential oil to work into the formulation! Happy making! 😁
